I'm not sure this was ever reported by the MSM. I've not searched for reports.... The following is from the online updates by the local weekly, The Lonestar Iconoclast, which made this mention yesterday afternoon.

Bomb Threat In Crawford

CRAWFORD - The Yellow Rose souvenir store in Crawford received a phone call between 3:30 and 4 p.m. on Sunday with the male voice claiming, "We're going to blow you up," said law enforcement authorities, who noted that a store employee received the call.

The building was evacuated immediately and searched by authorities who said that they found nothing.

At this hour, the store is closed.

According to Bill Johnson, owner, "We're still here. There are nuts everywhere."

Adjacent to the Yellow Rose is an area designated as a meeting site for supporters of the war in Iraq.

I love the list of stuff you can buy at the gift store (posted above the door). Reminds me of the big sign outside a barn-style store in the middle of nowhere in Wisconsin along the interstate: "Antiques, Guns, Liquor".

Here's a local (Waco) story on the bomb threat and other goings on in Crawford. They mention the Caravan, but not FR or the Move America Forward group sponsoring it.
